Ron Jeremy Hospitalized in Critical Condition After Heart Aneurysm

Legendary porn star Ron Jeremy has suffered a heart aneurysm in Los Angeles and is currently in critical condition, TMZ reports.

Mike Esterman, Jeremy’s manager, tells TMZ that Ron drove himself to Cedars-Sinai hospital on Tuesday afternoon complaining of chest pain. When doctors examined the porn star, they discovered the aneurysm. According to his manager, Ron’s condition has worsened, and he was then transferred to the ICU, currently being prepped for surgery.

Jeremy, or “The Hedgehog” as he is affectionately called, and his 9-inch schlong have appeared in more than 2,000 movies, and he is credited with directing 281 films. He also tops AVN’s list of “The 50 Top Porn Stars of All Time.” The only accomplishment that is more impressive is his ability to perform autofellatio.

But Ron Jeremy is also one of very porn actors to cross into mainstream cinema, having made cameos in films The Boondock Saints and 54, among others.
